LONDON, WEDNESDAY *EV.ENZIVd, JUNE 21, 1826. The Paris Papers of Sunday, inchling the, Plot'le, dated Monday morning, reached us last night. The Etoile states that letters Crain RIO (le Janeiro of the sth of. May, say, that f , By an Act dated 2d of' May, the Emperor of Brazil has abdicated the Crown of. Portugal, and transferred his rights to that kingdOm, to his Daughter, DONNA- MARIA DA GLORIA, Princess of BE IRA, who will be betrothed to her Uncle, the Infant DON MIGUEL." Notwithstanding the confidence with which this piece of intelligence is. communicated, we hesitate in beli e ving it. The Princess MARIA DA GLORIA' is only seven years of age, having been born on the 4th of April', 1819, and consequently the, Crown .of Par tugal:wOuld, in point of fact, be transferred to DON iViicam., whose imbecility and character are -so noto rious; that we can scarcely think the Emperor DON 'INDRO would Willingly subject' his European subjects IP the; rule of such a Man. The wisdom of the Empe ror, however, in preferring his ,South,American domi nions to his ancient kingdom, and resigning all claim to:the - latter, cannot be doubted ; and the result will be beneficial to both. Countriei, whoever may be placed On the Throne of either. The Etoile also states that letters from the frontiers of 'Wallachia mention that Bucharest is to be the seat of the negociations between the Russian and TurkiSh Commissioners ; and that Baron STROOONoFF, formerly. AmbassadOr to the Porte, will be one of the Russian Commissioners. The other papers are barren of any news of interest, if we except the following letter from the Archbishop lowAirvs to M. EyNAItD, relative to Greek affairs. Arte.netator roximus N. ZYNAAD. " i Ft.ungsol, June B.—l have just received excellent news. The brave Nicetas entered Tripolizza on the 13th of May. The marts made by Ibrahim to succour that place were ineffectual ; re- Allied by , the Greeks who defended it, he returned, after sustaining A : gre a t lost, to Patras. ~ t 0 The new Government evinces the greatest activity several le;eiguees, me well Greeks as foreigners, are ordered to quit the Noponersits. u They have persuaded the mariners to serve six mouths without PAY that every thing announces greater success lOr the future, sod! God will bless your efforts. " I am informed that seven hundred women and children were 1 r44 with the breve fellows of the garrison, and that they are in 1 4,catup at Cravari. The unfortunate creatures taken to Arta glad Pe e versadid not exceed a thousand. They sell them at a low price, but the cruelty of the Egyptians repulses Chriutian pur:. cl aws , by means of the Consuls at PleVega ; :termite! will, how tter, be enabled to fulfil your beneficent intentions." The internal 'state of ,Spain becomes every day Worse. The disorganized condition .of society in that unhappy country,. is represented as far exceeding any thing which can be conceived. Accounts from all ,parts of the kingdom give a picture of misery and anarchy °which , beggars description. It is not sur- Pilsing, however, that this should be the case, when We • observe the weak and wicked measures of its Go vaniment, and the ignorance of its population. The last French Papers give an account of a cir ctrmstance which had occurred at Madrid, which , may serve as a proof of the dreadful state of things in that City. An aggravated case of assassination took place on the 21st May,' at nine in the evening, in the open streets. The criminal, a Royalist volunteer, gave no other r e ason for the murder than that his victim (who Was an inhabitant of Madrid), was a Negro. , He was seiz e d, and proceedings commenced against him, but 0 11 his presenting a petition to the K ing, stating that the murdered man had bee killed in a quarrel, M. vie CALOMARDE communicated to the Alcades, that la. the accident had happened in a quarrel, his-Ma jesty ordered the criminal , to. be whollyracquittedl—i- The President of the Alcades surprised at this communication, applied directly to the King, representing the fatal consequence of this par don,, adding that the King was indeed absolute, but that the Tribunal thought that it never could be His IVlajesty's will to pardon assassins contrary to all existing Laws. What the result of tins remonstrance would be, wu .not known ; but in the meantime, to the scandal of all honest men, as the French Papers observe, the murderer walks at liberty about the streets of Madrid. T o us, who enjoy the privilege of living in thin h a ppy land, and under the pof rchection laws, which are jealously alive, to the preservation of social order, it will appear scarcely credible, that, in any country-having the form of a GoVernment, an d pro fessing Christianity, so gross a Violation of decency , should be practised, $ to pardon a person who had taken away the life of another, without the offender being subjected to a trial; . at which his innocence or uilt might be established. It a olds anoth er proof, however,. of the, evils of_ absolute governments, where the bigotry, folly, or passion.' of the person entrusted with such power, may set at defiance all those laws of God and Man, which have been instituted for the protection and happiness of mankind. His MAJEsTY has been graciously pleased by his PFder in Council, to direct that the fee hitherto ch 4tze d a t the Admiralty on letters granting Naval Officers permission to go abroad shall be discontinued ill future. This will in no way alter the existing regu lations, under which leave of absence is granted to °Ricers of the Royal Navy, any deviation from which 1 - I b,iticts them to the suspension of half-pay.

We have received this morning the Allgemein Zei- Wng of the 14th inst. The only article worth notice is the following, dated Mayence, June 8.:-- Thiatearn-boati intended for the navigatintr of the Upper Rhine are built, 'and want only the machinery, whiCh is expected froth England, to begin their voyages. The navigation of the Rhine has beiti brisker for this last mouth than might have been ex- , pected, considering the distressed state of foreign and domestic. trade. The quantity of goods dispatched from 'this city in that period is above 300,000 cwt. The alteration in the English corn laws has had some influence iu onr prices, but has not yet led to any exportation. Vtatora, Juxx 9.—Metalliques, 90i—Bank Sharer, 1,110. Frankfort Papers of the 14th Mot. have also reached or. They contain no news, but are filled with repetitions of the piracies committed by Greek vessels. The Powerful, of 84 guns, is to be launched from his MA JESTY'X Dock-yard, at Chatham, to-morrow. She is one of the finest ships of that claim (which is perhaps the hest) that has ever been built. She is built on Sit. R. SerrtNas' primiiples, and with a round stern, in which, • however, such improvements have been introduced, as to meet - every object of convenience and external beauty, without diminishing any of the advantages which this plan possesses over the square over-hanging stern. She is altogether the most magnificent two.•decker we ever saiv. The private Ship, Lady Combermere, has arrived in the River from the coa st 'of Africa. She left His Majesty's Ships, Maid stone, Esk, and Despatch, at Cape Coast Castle. Some few days ago, at a Tavern Meeting 'in the City, a friend of Mr. BnoUGHAM's, with a most cacophonoui name, which we have forgotten, and which, if we recollected it, we could hardly pronounce, recommended the friends of that Gentleman, to find their way to the poll and back again on foot. We did not believe him to be in earnest, and thought him either a dupe or a wag, but the man seems really to have been well instructed on the point, for, at a dinner given on Thursday last . to Mr. Bnoucatim, at Ken dal, the vain. aspirant urged his supporters to adopt that mode of transporting themselves to the hustings, with a degree of earnestness, which showed that it was not a matter of choice but of necessity ; And he des, . c . anted, as if he thought himself addressing Arcadian -swains, on the pleasure of walking over hills and through dales this fine weather. This is a sorry, an in sulting proposal to Westmoreland Freeholders: it is the beau-idealism of Mendicaut electioneering, and casts into shade even the blanket pilgrimage. Why are the Freeholders of West,. moreland to be treated thus teurvily? le it beeause they hive allowed themselves to be deceived into iorue admiration of a matt who has really no more pretension to represent their County than he has to represent Cornwall? He is not a native of the County. he has not property in it to support a man of the humblest expecia time in the rank of 4 Gentleman. He is only the organ aud the representative in the County, happily not in Parliament, of the radical feeling of the disappointed and the discontented of the dis trict. On stronger grounds than these lie attempted LiverpOol. bat when his supporters there saw the hopelessness oaf forciug political adventurer did% principles on the good sense of that town, they checked his noxious ambition, and told hint to owe his elevation to some individual borough prOprietor, who would not object to acknowledge the patronage of a Member who would be scurrilous to his Sovereign, and alternately servile and abusive to the Minister. Why is Mr. Baocuttem doomed to eternal disap pointment?; to disappointment in his profession, in politics, at Liverpool, and in Westmoreland ? Why is he doomed to see men of talents inferior to his own, daily preferred to himself, in every course in which en honourable man seeks distinction? Talents and character well directed hive never failed, in England, to ad vance-their,Possessor to honourable employment, or to the respect and confidence of party. Mr. Attominast has talents, but he is not employed, and he is an alien to the confidence of every party in the.State.' He has always aimed at political more than legal distinction,, and the acquisition of place has been the first object of his ambition all his public life. If be should deny this, he can not allege that he has, on any occasion refused a place. On two memorable occasions that at this moment occur to us, his conduct amounted to conciliatory overtures to the Ministers, who are the objects of his daily abuse, for advancement in professional gradation or for employment that should lead to admission to the Cabinet. The first of the occasions to which we allude,. was when he crossed the channel for the purpose of stopping the late Queen in her career to mortification and disappointment—and when Alderman Noon out-manoeuvred him : the second occasion was, when during the three first months after Lord LONDOI9fCRILY's death, he praised every measure and every word that came from the new Minister, Mr. CANNING. As the QUEEN'S impetuosity left him 'to mourn his disappointed ambition, he took her motley for defending her. As the Minister, after all the adulation he had lavished upon him, declined his services, for one reason as good as ten thOusand—that he could not join him with such a character as Would make him a useful or creditable supporter —he commenced a low and vulgar system of abuse, and persevered in it till he received that cool, deliberate, and ever memorable check front the lips of Mr. CallmNit, which' he has never yet forgotten. Is this a man tit to represent Westnioreland Freeholders, ol• the independent voters of any County ? He knows that what he calls the first object of his ambition is, unattainable by him, but he persevere s, contrar y to the exam p le of all men who have u nited character and gentlemanly feeling with their am bition, for the sole purpose of vexing and annoying his opponents. Westmoreland has rejected him twice; let him seek, and be content with an obscurer means of admission to the House of Commons. Westmoreland Electors do not object to his having a seat there, but to his pretending to have the honour of speaking their sentiments. _ ------ __,--,-------_-_-- The Elections are go ing on in all parts of the Country, as the friends of the present' state of things would wish.

Gilbert East, Hart. Mr. stated the espy tlta fiat* of which way be best underetood from the evidence, Sir Gilbert'East, Bart. deposed, that he had purchased several quarter casks of wine, in 1824, from the defendant, and that hit butler, in bottling it out, bad discovered that they were inferior in quantity to those he was in the habit of receiving from others. He wrote to the defendant respecting it, stating that he had re ceived some quarter casks of sherry from Mr. Wright, con., taining thirty-six gallons for twenty.-six ; whereas ,the de fendant charged 28/., though hie casks contained only 32 gallons, and saying, if defendant would send him ten bottles to make up for the difference he would he satisfied. The defendant replied, that the casks were made by his coopers, who might make some larger than others, but that he was not aware of a deficiency in any of them. The defendant afterwards sent for the casks, in order to have them measured, but the prosecutor would not let him have them; whereupon the defendant wrote him a letter to the following effect Sir, Your conduct in not sending me casks,. to have them measured, convinces me that your representa tions as to the quantity they contain are false. You may a Baronet—but I ant sure you are not a gentleman : are a dis grace to your rank."—(Thia letter formed the subject of the pro secution.) Cross-examined by Mr. WILLIAsts.-;-He never sent a letter by a twopenny post to the defendant,---of that he was as sure as he possibly could be of any thing. The letter which Mr. Williams handed to him was certainly written. by hint to the defendant, bearing a twopenny post mark on it, but he did not recollect .hay jug sent it by post. . Richard Keely was butler to the prosecutor; saw the quarter cask guaged, it contained 32 gallons ; called on the defendant re specting it, who said that be would have nothing further to do with Sir Gilbert East as he was no gentleman, nor did he know how to behave as a gentlewan. Mr. Ward, a solicitor, called on the defendant, requesting of him to make the matter up with Sir Gilbert, and prevent legal proceedings Jobe instituted against him. Defendant replied, that he would notretract any thing in the letters Sir:Richard was not a Gentleman; and if a Baronet, he was a disgrace to his rank. Wit ness might tall Sir Gilbert so ; if defendant was not in trade, he would treat Sir . Gilbert.in a different manner. John Elliott, clerk,to the last witness, applied to the defendant to have this matter settled, who said that Sir Gilbert had obtained the calls in a dishonest manner, he was a disgrace to the rank he held, he would have him before the Lord Mayor but that he was beneath his contempt, he therefore would take no further notice of hini.—Tbis was the case for the prosecution. WlLLtasts for the defendant, objected to some allegations in the indictments. The CIfIEP 'JUSTICE retired to consult with the other three Judges respecting it, and on his return overruled the objections. Mr. WILLIAMS then addressed the Jury, stating that the conduct of the prosecutor perfectly warranted the exprersioni used by the defendant. The Loan, CHM , JUSTICE briefly summed up the evidence, stating it as his opinion, that the letter written by the defendant had a tendency to induce a breach of the peace, and was therefore a fit subject for an indictment.

ALMACK'S IN TNDlA.—When Sir John.M,Pher son was Governor General of India, most,of his staff consisted of Scotch gentlemen, whose names began with Mac. The Flon. Mr. Fitzroy used to call the government house Allmaeks, for said he, " if you stand Indic middle of the court, and call Mac, you will have a bead popped out of every window." It is expected that, the third battalion of Grenadier Guards, the first battalion of the. Coldstreams, and the second battalion of third regiment of Foot Guards, will be reviewed at Wormwood Scrubs, on Tuesday next, by his Royal Meiners the Duke of York, the above being the only battalions at present in town. Westmoreland is the' (,n% county in which the strange anomaly of an hereditary Sheriff exists; that hereditary Sheriff is Lord Thanet, Mr. 'Brougham's chief supporter. Lord Mallet appoints a deputy to hold the election, and this deputy is, of course, likely to be a warm supporter of Mr. Brougham. The pub lic should bear this in mind, and they will see, as the election proceeds, how this circumstance works.

(THIS DAY.) This morning, the last sad rites were performed over the re mains of this distinguished Composer, in the Chapel in Moortields, - witlt all the solemn grandeur which marks the ceremonies of the Homan Catholic Church. The Chapel was at an early hour thronged to excess, by respectable persons, generally attired in blacki and the deep manifestation of sorrow, displayed br all, showed how they deplored the lamented cause of their assemblage. The grand altar of the sacred edifice was hung with black eltith, anti the branch tapers were also !dark ; on the altar was placed the crucifix and other insignia of the Church, hut the lights were not so numerous as .upon, the celebration of the ordi nary Inas? ; this being merely the service or recital of the prayers for the dead, the formula was somewhat changed and of .4 much more measured and solemn character. On the right of the altar the officiating priest took Isis position, attended by a group of boys, also dressed in sable habiliments.— Around the altar some others of the Catholic clergy were arranged to assist in the service. The choir was complete, as far as we could ascertain, hOt from the confusion that prevailed in the gallery, it was altogether im possible to get a correct list of the persons composing it. The ruin into all parts of the chapel continued during the whole of the service and, as might be supposed, considerably impeded its qui T et Oli i e oCing is the order-of the procession of the funeral as it started at a quarter-past 9 o'clock from the house of Sir George Snot, Great Portland-street. The street was thronged with people, who accompanied the procession to its final destination : Conductors on Horseback. Mutes in Silk Dresies. State Plume of Feathers. Mutes.
